how much do we care if the taliban terrorize their own people if they don't terrorize us? >> that is really tough question and it is probably the heart of the whole issue. we have now spent 10 years and hundreds of billions of dollars and although the american military has done enormously amazing things, we've done everything that we have asked of them. counterinsurgency. they switched to counterterrorism, they have done it all. despite that two things have failed. one the karzai government has failed to stand up after 10 years. they have failed it stand up and adequate police and military as you just said. the second thing that's happened, pakistan, despite 20 billions of dollars has failed. they played us for suckers and they have failed to shut down the taliban safe havens in pakistan. so at this point, where is that bar for american withdrawal. i think you're seeing the president is setting that bar real low. just can we get out there have without having to shoot our way out. jenna: there was an interesting article in the "wall street journal" that showed a mixed pictu
